AN APPRECIATION 
Indianapolis, Ind. 
Sept. 30, 193G. 
Mr. Lloyd Zimmer, 
Bremen, Ind. 
Dear Lloyd: 
Just a word regarding the two 
spikes of Baron Munchausen you 
gave me. These spikes were laid in 
the back seat of the car and carried 
to Indianapolis from your planting. 
They were wilted upon arrival as no 
flower out of water could stand that 
heat. 
I immediately placed them in wa¬ 
ter and much to my great surprise 
they revived perfectly and opened up 
and held nine and ten open florets 
for several days. Baron Munchausen 
looks good to me. If it performs for 
others as it does in your plantings 
it is the best red in its class. 
Sincerely, 
Paul T. Ulman. 
Mr. Ulman is Assistant State En¬ 
tomologist and Vice-President of the 
Indiana Gladiolus Society.
